Well , she started crying yesterday and her body started getting cold. She passed away about 8pm. I never did she her pee or poop, even when I did the cotton ball wipe after feeding her. I don't know if something was wrong or if she was just to tiny and weak. I was feeding a formula I get from my vet called Pro-Biolac. It has colostrum, DHA, and micro organisms. Is made by Vet Solutions in TX. I hope this doesn't happen again, but if so , I will learn how to tube feed. She was eating by the syringe every 2 hrs, and I could feel her belly getting fuller so the formula was getting into her. For the future, how much do you feed a puppy of this size ? I followed the instructions and it was 1 ml -1.25 per feeding with 8 feedings. Does this sound right? With a homemade formula, how much do you feed? Is there a guideline like if the pup weighs this , you feed this amount? Tube or syringe. Thanks for your prayers, ideas and kind words. |
